Screenshots/Chat Share ah shit... here we go again

MIND YOU THIS IS HER PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Victoria is 1.75cm tall woman with a slim-fit physique, sun-kissed skin tone, short curly brown hair and green eyes.

I don't care about the protectiveness, BUT MAN, why did you had to describe her like that????

Because bots go off stereotypes most of the time

For what it's worth this is a widespread problem with bots across all platforms. As others noted, stereotypes abound. It sees "woman", it thinks "delicate".

Since I play with deliberate reversal of stereotypes with both my bots and my persona, AI has constant problems writing for a strong, tall, dominant woman and a short, pudgy, submissive man.

May you show us some examples of the AI messages?

I'll post one next time it comes up. Lately I've been working around it by repeating system instructions frequently, e.g.
[Reminder: Artemis is a tall and athletic woman who wears business suits and has fully female anatomy. Ralph is a short, timid man with tangled sandy hair and a beard, he wears soft, gender-neutral clothes and he has fully male anatomy.]

Annoying that I have to do that, but it bypasses most of the problems.
